Which of the following statements is/are true? A Taylor Series is always centered at $x = 0$. $\sin(\frac{\pi}{7}) = \frac{\pi}{7} - \frac{(\frac{\pi}{7})^3}{3!} + \frac{(\frac{\pi}{7})^5}{5!} - \frac{(\frac{\pi}{7})^7}{7!} + \frac{(\frac{\pi}{7})^9}{9!}$ A Taylor Polynomial is a finite series, while a Taylor Series is an infinite series. The partial sums of the Taylor Series are the Taylor Polynomials. $\sin(6) = 6 - \frac{6^3}{3!} + \frac{6^5}{5!} - \frac{6^7}{7!} + \frac{6^9}{9!} - ...$

Decide if the statements are true or false. Assume that the Taylor series for a function converges to that function. Give an explanation for your answer. The Taylor series for $x^{3} \cos x$ about $x=0$ has only odd powers.

Finding and Using Taylor Series
Decide if the statements are true or false. Assume that the Taylor series for a function converges to that function. Give an explanation for your answer. The Taylor series for $\sin x$ about $x=\pi$ is $(x-\pi)-\frac{(x-\pi)^{3}}{3 !}+\frac{(x-\pi)^{5}}{5 !}-\cdots$.
